Tim, first off make your truck road worthy - mechanically, etc...get behind the wheel and drive it...for the body work, do a fender a weekend, some sanding at night when you can, etc...it will take longer, but if you take your time you will get better at it and not get sick of it...get a power grinder/sander to do most of the grunt work for you...make sure you have rust converter and primer when you do start sanding to protect the metal right after sanding...
As for the fenders, if the new is better condition than the old, it is almost worth replacing...you could replace a front fender in a few hours compared to a day of sanding/priming...
Just my .02...but I'm doing the same thing to get my car ready for paint...Guy(NH)
